About Melissa McGarity Zurita, MS, LPC-Associate Supervised by Lori Vann, MA, LPC-S and Guy Earle, MAMF, LPC-S, LCDC, DMin
I have lived in Ireland and served as a missionary throughout Ireland, Northern Ireland, and England. These experiences have equipped me to work with individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds.
From my personal experience, I was previously married and widowed. I understand what it means to heal significant loss and commit to a devoted love again. My personal experience with loss, including being widowed and finding love again, enhances my empathetic approach, providing a safe space for clients to heal and grow.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband, being active outdoors, and being actively involved with my church, all of which enrich my holistic approach to therapy.
